Well, Jim, this is a very simple thing to do.....and lots of Rev pros are already doing this...but, like so many things in Rev... hard to find any place where it is all documented in a "visual" way you can get a grip on...
Thanks to
Richard K. Herz
for:
http://reactorlab.net/intro/rich_client.html
which is so far, the best documented resource for describing the whole approach.
You are welcome to see the first draft, that's going out to beta testing as we speak. I'm sure it's very primitive and has lots of UI issues from a professional point of view, (we feel like a child next to the likes of Richard Gaskin et al the other wizards) but it works (I hope).
At the moment this is not being distributed to the general public, but has a very specific use which is to provide an engine for remote staff/collaborators for whom I can issue other tool kits by email or from our intranet server, as very small .rev stacks that I can update easily as needed.
I tried to ferret out Richard's RevNet... but it was so far over my head (backscripts inside buttons... stuff like that) I just put this together as best I could... using the KISS approach to programming ("keep it simple stupid") I also threw in the "Stack Index" which downloads a 5-year old "HA Portal" stack that hasn't been updated for a long time but will be one day.
There are two standalones built for OSX and Windows and I just now put up the 55 K .rev stack if you want to "look inside"

Any insights on improvements welcome. Especially any "gotchas" that I don't see...

Sannyasin,
This is very interesting to me. I have been anxious waiting for the "Player" for some time.
But it appears that you have effectively made your own. How exactly does this work?
